Drive Enclosures – SCSI only
Adaptec SCSI RAID controllers support drive enclosures that
include SAF-TE enclosure management hardware per the SAF-TE
specification.
Hotspares
Adaptec RAID controllers support hotspares—drives that are
reserved to replace a failing drive in a redundant array. If a drive
fails, the hotspare will replace it and the arrays is automatically
rebuilt.
Adaptec RAID controllers support two types of hotspares:
■
Global
—Protects every array that the drive has enough
available capacity to protect.
■
Dedicated
—Protects only the array that it has been assigned to
protect.
